Connecting the Projector to Other Equipment
Before connecting, ensure that the power cord of the projector is unplugged from the AC outlet 
and turn off the equipment to be connected. After making all connections, turn on the projector 
and then the other pieces of equipment. When connecting a computer, ensure that it is the last 
equipment to be turned on after all the connections are made.
IMPORTANT:
Ensure that the appropriate input mode has been selected on the projector before 
you turn on the connected equipment.
For more details of connection and cables, refer to the owners manual of the connecting equipment.You may need other cables or connectors not listed below.

When you connect external equipment to the projector using a DVI digital cable, the image will look 
different from its original appearance. In this case, switch to the Plug-and-Play data. (See page 37.)
See page 58 “Computer Compatibility Chart” for a list of computer signals compatible with the 
projector. Use with computer signals other than those listed may cause some of the functions to not 
work.
A Macintosh adaptor may be required for use with some Macintosh computers. Contact your nearest 
Macintosh Dealer.
Depending on the computer you are using, an image may not be projected unless the 
computers external output por t is switched on.  Refer to the speci c instructions in the owners 
manual of your computer to enable your computers external output port.

While the projector is connected to video equipment that has an HDMI output terminal, only the video 
signal can be input to the projector. (Connect the AUDIO input terminal for audio input.)
Depending on speci cations of video equipment or the DVI
ÙHDMI digital cable, the signal 
transmission may not work property. (The HDMI speci cation does not support all connections to 
video equipment that has HDMI digital output terminal using a DVI ÙHDMI digital cable.)
 For details on compatibility for connection, see support information on DVI connection provided by 
the video equipment manufacturer.
When you connect external equipment to the projector using a DVI digital cable, the image will look 
different from its original appearance. In this case, switch to the Plug-and-Play data. (See page 
37.)
 When you connect video equipment with a 21-pin RGB output (Euro-scart) to the projector, use a 
commercially available cable that  ts in the projector terminal you want to connect.
The projector does not support RGBC signals via the Euro-scart.

Controlling the Projector by a Computer
When the RS-232C terminal on the projector is connected to a computer with an RS-232C serial 
control cable (cross type, commercially available), the computer can be used to control the 
projector and check the status of the projector. Refer to the “SETUP MANUAL” contained on the 
supplied CD-ROM for “RS-232C Specifi cations and Commands”.

The RS-232C function may not operate if your computer terminal is not correctly set up. Refer to the 
owners manual of the computer for details.
Refer to pages 
2 to  8 of the “SETUP MANUAL” contained on the supplied CD-ROM for “Connecting 
Pin Assignments” and “RS-232C Speci cations and Commands”.


Note
Info
Do not connect the RS-232C cable to a port other than the RS-232C terminal on the computer. This 
may damage your computer or projector.
Do not connect or disconnect an RS-232C serial control cable to or from the computer while it is on. 
This may damage your computer.

Turning the Projector On/Off
Turning the Projector On
Note that the connections to external 
equipment and power outlet should be 
done before performing the operations 
written below. (See pages 
21 to 25.)
Open the lens shutter fully and press 
STANDBY/ON  on the projector or  ON 
on the remote control.
The power indicator illuminates red. 
After the lamp indicator illuminates, the projector 
is ready to start operation.
About the Lamp Indicator
The lamp indicator illuminates to indicate the 
status of the lamp.
Green:  The lamp is on.
Blinking in green:  The lamp is warming up.Red:  The lamp is shut down 
abnormally or the lamp should be 
replaced.
When switching on the projector, a slight 
 ickering of the image may be experienced 
within the  rst minute after the lamp has been 
illuminated. This is normal operation as the 
lamps control circuitry is stabilising the lamp 
output characteristics. It should not be 
regarded as faulty operation.
If the projector is put into standby mode and 
immediately turned on again, the lamp may 
take some time to start projection.
When System Lock is set, the keycode input 
box appears. To cancel the keycode setting, 
input the keycode that you have already set. 
See page 
46 for details.




Note
Turning the Power Off (Putting 
the Projector into Standby Mode)
Press 
STANDBY/ON  on the projector 
or  STANDBY  on the remote control, 
then press that button again while the 
con  rmation message is displayed, to 
put the projector into standby mode.
The projector cannot be turned on while cooling.



Info
When “Auto Restar t” is set to “On”:
If the power cord is unplugged from the outlet 
or the breaker switch is turned off when the 
projector is on, then the projector 
automatically turns on when the power cord 
is plugged into the AC outlet or the breaker 
switch is turned on. (See page 
45.)
English is the factory default language. If you 
want to change the on-screen display to 
another language, change the language 
according to the procedure on page

Adjusting the Projected Image
1 Adjusting the Focus
You can adjust the focus with the focus 
ring on the projector.
Rotate the focus ring to adjust the 
focus while watching the projected 
image.
2 Adjusting the Height
The height of the projector can be 
adjusted using the adjustment feet.
When the screen is above the projector, 
the projection image can be made higher 
by adjusting the projector.
1  Lift the projector to adjust its height while lifting the HEIGHT 
ADJUST lever.
2  Remove your hands from the HEIGHT ADJUST lever of the 
projector after its height has 
been   nely adjusted.
 The angle of projection is adjustable up to 
9 degrees from the surface on which the 
projector is placed.
When adjusting the height of the projector, 
trapezoidal distortion occurs. Follow the 
procedures in Keystone Correction to correct 
the distortion. (See pages 
28 and 43.)

Note
3 Adjusting the Picture Size
You can adjust the picture size using the 
zoom ring on the projector.

Image Projection (Continued)
Correcting Trapezoidal 
Distortion
When the image is projected either from 
the top or from the bottom towards the 
screen at an angle, the image becomes 
distorted trapezoidally. The function for 
correcting trapezoidal distortion is called 
Keystone Correction.
The Keystone Correction can be adjusted up 
to an angle of approximately ±40 degrees and 
the screen can also be set up to an angle of 
approximately ±40 degrees (when the resize 
mode is set to “NORMAL” (see page 
30)).

Note
1 Press 
KEYSTONE  to enter the 
Keystone Correction mode.
You can also display the on-screen display 
of the Keystone Correction mode with 
KEYSTONE  on the projector.
2 Press P/Q  or  O/R  to adjust the 
Keystone Correction.
You can also adjust the Keystone 
Correction using the adjustment buttons 
on the projector.
To return to the default setting, press 
RETURN  while the on-screen display of the 
Keystone Correction mode is on the screen.

Note
3 Press 
KEYSTONE . The on-screen display of the Keystone 
Correction mode will disappear.
You can also use  KEYSTONE on the 
projector.
